Description

Hello, my name is Dongqing, you can also call me Lamia.☺️

I love being outdoors and living close to natural surroundings. I am vegetarian and comfortable caring for all kinds of animals, and I have experience with cats, dogs, and stray animal rescue.

I studied Hospitality Management at university and have volunteered in hostels and guesthouses, including in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I have also worked as a Chinese language teacher and speak Mandarin, Cantonese, and English （C1）. I enjoy photography and am open to helping in creative or practical ways.

I have lived independently in eight different cities, which makes me adaptable and curious about different lifestyles. I am open to volunteering in teaching, farm work, guesthouse management, or any nature-related projects. My goal is to contribute thoughtfully while learning from the local environment and community.
